Here's an animated gif showing 3 satellite images from #ESA#Sentinel2, 31st March, 9th and 13th April. At the start of April a big iceberg has calves off the front. The animation also shows the ice moving forward.
Does anyone have a good method for downloading single-band Sentinel-2 data?
I've tried a QGIS plugin called "Sentinel2 SoloBand", and a couple of Python libraries called "Sentinel2-single-band-download" and "CDSETools" - and I can't seem to get any of them to work.
The best tool I've found is a QGIS Plugin called "Semi-Automatic-Classification", which just happens to include a Sentinel 2 data downloaded as an extra.
I've been working on this because there's a group called Air Alliance Houston that is asking for community support to oppose an environmental permit for this facility.
I hope that showing how the facility has been constantly venting methane should give the group additional arguments to oppose the permit.
So far I figured out how to use Sentinel to detect methane and how to automatically download and process the data.
Now I need to figure out a good way to present it.
Discussing some work on sea ice and coastal polynyas in #Antarctica with colleague and stumbled on this frankly glorious image from @esaclimate#Sentinel2 on 22nd March this year. So much going on in this picture from #ShackletonIceShelf in East Antarctica.
This illustrative satellite image of the #Grindavik area was taken by #Sentinel2 (#Copernicus programme, #ESA) from a height of ~800km, in both infrared (showing heat: the lava progress and three active craters) and visible bands. The strategic defensive barriers can easily be seen.
@BonnConvention has recently published the “State of the World's Migratory Species”, a report detailing the status of migratory birds & their habitats
